t"-. Who Shall Judge?
.; ' When wo say to a boy some man is great we may be
treading on rather thin ice, for who shall judge the great
ness of men?
: In his still well-known calendar of the world's great
men, from the dawn of history down to about 1820, Au
truste Comte included only 559 names.
,'j "And to get this number he included such tiny stars us
the American novelist, Fennimore Cooper, the English drani
litist, Thomas Otway. and the Italian composer, Donizette.
That many men who might be .called great are not rec
ognized is one conclusion that may be drawn from thi.
Doubtless this is true today. The man who invented the
typewriter has affected the lives of millions. Judged by
the benefits he hns conferred this inventor might well be
called great. But how many know that the typewriter was
devised by Christopher Lathan Sholes, a collector of cus
tom' at Milwaukee, in 1867?
'.That recognition of greatness is an accident is nnolher
conclusion to bo drawn from the old list of the world's
great men. Men are -much alike, however greatly their

Which Is Your Companion?
"God, love and money" are given as the "three prime
consolations known to man in the difficulty of his life" by
Christopher Morlcy in the July Century magazine. Mor
ley says that with all three consolations man is supremely
happy, with one of them he is contented and with none of!
them his life is filled with despair and is empty of all joy.
j Every community knows its members who having God
ftsk nothing more from life. .With them God is love 'and a
tnoney and life itself. There are other men and women
who have love and desire nothing more. They obviously
tfive neither thought nor care to God or money. As for
the members of the human family who are happy with
their "money bags," they appear contented in their work
oT"making and spending money. All three of these groups
seem to find life worth the living and are probably sel
dom heard to complain.
But perhaps there is a fourth consolation unsung by
Sage Morney. but none She less consoling to man. This
fourth consolation is the power to think. Thore is im
frreater consolation than the ability to think alone. Kel;
tively few people can tolerate meditating solitude, but imtny
envy those who can. There are men and women w ho know
vf no better company than their own thoughts. They are
called philosopher and their thoughts and words are eag
erly sought after by solitude-fearing, people. We will ex
tend Morley's prime consolations to include "thought."
Consoling ourselves with thought don't we finally (md
lhat all four consolations are but symbols for something
else companionship? Why does man turn to God. love,
money or his thoughts but for company? Isn't it a fact
ih the final analysis that man's one consolation is society,
not necessarily of people, but of something? Some thou
will find consolation in God, others in love, others in money
and still others in their thoughts but all in the companion
thip thus offered them.

Our own experience proves to
us as yours will prove to you
that no car, whatever its weight
or si:e, equals the Chrysler Six
in buoyant, restful riding.
The special spring suspension,'
plus perfect balance, plus com
plete absence of any period of
vibration, plus special six-ply,
high-speed balloon tires, accounte "
for the greater safety and better
riding which the Chrysler Six
provides for its passengers.
This sensation has been aptly
compared to the smooth skim
rmng over the water of a saU
boat. The Chrysler Six seems
actually to level out its own path
over road inequalities.
